"I have had severe asthma for most of my adult life . Despite oral and inhaled steroids my asthma was poorly controlled . Three years ago I began treatment with Nucala and my condition has improved significantly. After the first dose an improvement occurred and now my health is much better than it was 7 years ago when due to ill health I was forced to take medical retirement. This drug has worked so well for me and I'm so grateful to be given it ."

"I have been having monthly Nucala injections for about seven years now, after previously suffering with severe asthma and bronchiectasis. I have never smoked once in my whole life. The effects of the Nucala were a wonderful relief, almost like a miracle. I was able to live a normal life, except if I caught flu or a bad cold. I do not know what has happened to cause these chest problems to become suddenly so severe in the space of one month - wheezing, coughing up every 30 minutes through the night, and breathlessness, even though I am on steroids and antibiotics. I just hope and pray that after my next Nucala injection, I will be well again."

"I have only been using Nucala for 4 months but the improvement has been incredible. My breathing has been so much better. I no longer need prednisone and I have reduced my inhaler use immensely. Side effects on occasion are some mild back and joint pain."
